C7 lower rear bumper replacement
Wondering how difficult it is to remove and replace the lower rear bumper panel on the C7.
It looks like there are just a few bolts on the bottom (each side) and a couple in the license plate cut out.
If anyone has some experience, please let me know.
thanks

Here's the DIY from the Forum. There is some confusion so I suggest you read at least through post 25:

The clips on the bottom corners can be a little tricky, but otherwise straightforward removal. I’ve done it 3 times now. Use plastic tool to remove the rear reflectors or they’ll get scratched. No need to jack the car up either. Link provided is a great reference.
